“We are constantly looking for further investment
opportunities with telecoms operators in any part of the world and we have set
ourselves a target of investing in 20 countries by 2020.”

The deal will cement Viettel as the leading mobile player in
Cambodia with a 50% market share, and the operator is also looking to develop infrastructure
in the country in preparation for future 4G and 5G services.

“Customers can look forward to enjoying even better quality
and coverage, higher speeds, value-added services, and access to 4G services in
the near future,” Thang said.

“We will continue to develop the infrastructure and our
capabilities in Cambodia to provide users with technologically
advanced, affordable and reliable solutions.”
